You Are So Sweet Episode 12 Recap
> You Are So Sweet Recap
Sister Yanran arrived at Gu Chenyu's office but chose not to enter. Instead, she sat down at Xia Xiaoning's computer, positioning herself to see Gu Chenyu's desk. She then meticulously compared a photo on her phone with Xia Xiaoning's computer wallpaper, which featured the same image. The recap then revealed that Yanran knew Gu Chenyu was Mobuyu. She reflected that the bracelet shown in the picture had a jewel engraved with the letters C and Y, representing Chenyu.
It was a unique, custom-made gift from Aunt Gu for Gu Chenyu's eighteenth birthday, meaning there could not possibly be a second one. Yanran mused on her commitment to protecting Gu Chenyu's identity, stating that she was willing to stand by him and support his dream, but firmly declared that she would never permit another woman to take him away.
Moments later, Xia Xiaoning approached, asking if something was wrong, to which Yanran simply replied that she was fine and dismissed her. After Jin Yao sobered up at the police station, she clarified to the police that she and Xie Fei were friends and neighbors, admitting she had been drunk when making earlier accusations of assault. Xie Fei, who had spent the night sleeping uncomfortably in a chair, stood up with numb legs.
Jin Yao immediately rushed to apologize, expressing deep regret for her actions. However, Xie Fei remained visibly angry, telling her he had never been so unlucky in his life and asked her to stay away, fearing she might accuse him again on a whim. Jin Yao pleaded with him to forgive her, reminding him of their friendship and neighborly ties.
Xie Fei retorted that he didn't recall them being that close and pointed out that she had indeed dragged him to a hotel, questioning her intentions. Jin Yao, in turn, scoffed at his insinuation, highlighting her own attractiveness and popularity, implying she wouldn't need to resort to such actions. Just then, Xia Xiaoning arrived, checking on Jin Yao. The police officer urged them to leave quickly, remarking that they were wasting police resources and warning of a penalty.
Shortly after, Gu Chenyu appeared and told Xia Xiaoning to take Jin Yao, while asking someone else to send Xie Fei back. Gu Chenyu then warned the two "kids" to be careful. Xia Xiaoning then chided Jin Yao for getting herself into such a predicament. Gu Chenyu and Xie Fei met by the river. Xie Fei felt he had lost, but Gu Chenyu corrected him, stating that Xie Fei had lost not to him, but to Mobuyu.
Gu Chenyu then revealed that he himself was Mobuyu. A stunned Xie Fei questioned this, then confessed his own secret identity as Xie Wuchang, the popular online voice actor and owner of Pineapple Radio. Gu Chenyu calmly revealed he had already known, having seen Xie Fei send a private message to Mobuyu from Xie Wuchang's account right in front of him.
Realizing he had been tricked, Xie Fei grew agitated, particularly since Gu Chenyu had still asked him to connect with Xie Wuchang and even offered him the second male lead role in "Lethe." Gu Chenyu admitted to tricking him but insisted it was out of genuine admiration, noting the complexity and brilliance of the role and that he couldn't imagine anyone else fulfilling it.
Xie Fei angrily refused, having already played the second male lead twice in the "three-dimensional" world, he would not do so in the "two-dimensional" one. Gu Chenyu tried to persuade him by highlighting the commercial appeal of Mobuyu and Xie Wuchang collaborating on "Lethe." Still fuming, Xie Fei threatened to end their friendship if Gu Chenyu didn't appease him. Gu Chenyu then pledged to do anything for compensation.
Xie Fei demanded that Gu Chenyu, as Mobuyu, write a lavish Weibo post praising Xie Wuchang as superior. Gu Chenyu agreed and asked if Xie Fei would then join "Lethe," to which Xie Fei replied it depended on his mood. Xie Fei then remarked that Gu Chenyu had changed, noting his newfound willingness to joke and openness, a stark contrast to his previously cold and reserved demeanor.
Gu Chenyu playfully asked if he was really that boring, to which Xie Fei emphatically agreed, urging him to maintain his new personality. Later, Jin Yao and Xia Xiaoning scrolled through Weibo, bewildered by Mobuyu's exaggerated praise for Xie Wuchang, wondering if Gu Chenyu's account had been hacked. They found it strange, given Gu Chenyu's usual poker face and lack of interaction with Xie Wuchang. Suddenly, Gu Chenyu arrived, bearing a recording bear.
The bear played a message from Gu Chenyu, apologizing to Xia Xiaoning for making her sad and admitting his excessive caution. He promised never to hide anything from her again and expressed his desire for them to realize her dream of becoming a voice actress together.
The next morning, Xia Xiaoning greeted Sister Yanran at the recording studio, explaining that she had formally transferred to the department to learn dubbing with a voice acting teacher, a move approved by Gu Chenyu. Sister Yanran, though seemingly amiable, warned Xia Xiaoning not to be too happy too soon, implying challenges ahead. Xia Xiaoning then greeted her new team member, Yating, who asked if she had offended "President Hao," a question Xia Xiaoning dismissed as a misunderstanding.
Despite her new role, Xia Xiaoning continued to assist Gu Chenyu temporarily until a new assistant could be found. She and Gu Chenyu often communicated through handwritten notes, playfully teasing each other about her new position and his "charismatic" presence. Eventually, their shared drawer became filled with these little messages. During a company meeting about the online character recruitment for "Lethe," Xia Xiaoning inadvertently drew on her face.
Gu Chenyu quickly alerted her, and she used a mirror to realize her mistake, catching Gu Chenyu smiling at her reflection as he partially obscured his face with a folder. The playful exchange did not go unnoticed by Xie Fei and Sister Yanran, who seemed annoyed. Sister Yanran abruptly ended the meeting after outlining the plans for selecting shortlisted candidates and creating promotional content for "Lethe," and she left in a huff.
As he departed, Xie Fei wryly commented that office romances should be more discreet, prompting curious whispers among other colleagues. Afterwards, Gu Chenyu playfully chided Xia Xiaoning to be serious at work, to which she retorted that he shouldn't "randomly discharge electricity" during work either, leading to more lighthearted banter between them. Meanwhile, Jin Yao visited Xie Fei's apartment, boldly rushing inside before he could fully react.
She explained she had two reasons for her visit, one being an apology for the previous night, which Xie Fei, with a hint of magnanimity, accepted. The second reason, she declared, was that she liked him, leaving Xie Fei speechless. Later, Gu Chenyu and Xia Xiaoning were spotted by Manager Wang getting into Gu Chenyu's car. They headed to an amusement park, where they rode the miniature train, which Xia Xiaoning called a "confession holy land."
There, she playfully declared her affection for Gu Chenyu, who responded by teasingly asking who allowed her to like him. Xia Xiaoning assertively replied that her confession was not for his permission but to inform him that he had no right to refuse her feelings. Back at his place, Xie Fei contemplated Jin Yao's sudden confession while looking at the bento she had prepared for him, trying to comprehend her unexpected move.
He inwardly pondered strategies to deal with her "tsundere narcissistic" personality, concluding that he would "fight back" and "transform" this "delicate flower." While drawing, Jin Yao was still consumed by thoughts of how to win Xie Fei over, mentally reiterating her strategy to tackle his "tsundere narcissistic" personality head-on. Concurrently, Xia Xiaoning and Gu Chenyu were having fun at the amusement park. After enjoying a sweet snack, Xia Xiaoning spotted goldfish and excitedly suggested they try scooping some.
Despite Gu Chenyu's initial struggles, they managed to catch a group of goldfish. Back at Gu Chenyu's home, Xia Xiaoning, unable to reach the fish tank, was effortlessly lifted by Gu Chenyu to release their new pets. She then meticulously instructed him on how to care for the goldfish, including using old water and adding salt after water changes, to which Gu Chenyu, feigning confusion, jokingly suggested she handle the care herself, calling her lazy.
Noticing Gu Chenyu's numerous trophies, Xia Xiaoning began reciting a dramatic and old-fashioned poem, "Sending off the sunset under Kunlun Mountain. . . , I dedicate oil to my country," evidently one from his childhood poetry recitation competition. Gu Chenyu chuckled at her performance. As the evening grew late, Gu Chenyu, noting it was unsafe for Xia Xiaoning to walk home alone, leaned in, intending to kiss her.
Xia Xiaoning quickly stopped him, reminding him that she had an audition for the female second lead role of Cheng Green tomorrow and didn't want to be distracted. As she walked away, she paused, turned back, gave him a quick kiss, and bid him goodnight.
